CONNECTIONS AND MAINTENANCE

■ Mounting the transceiver

D Using the supplied mounting bracket
The universal mounting bracket supplied with your transceiv-
er allows overhead or dashboard mounting.
Mount the bracket securely to a surface which is more than
q
10 mm thick and can support more than 5 kg using the 2
supplied screws (5 × 20 mm).
Attach the transceiver to the bracket so that the face of the
w
transceiver is at 90° to your line of sight when operating it.
KEEP the transceiver and microphone at least 1 meter
away from the vessel's magnetic navigation compass.
NOTE: Check the installation angle; the function display
may not be easy-to-read at some angles.
NOTE for the IC-M323G and IC-M324G:
Built-in GPS receiver is located at the right top of the front
panel.
If the transceiver is covered with any object that interrupts
the GPS signals from the satellites, the GPS receiver will
not calculate its position.
Therefore, when you use the built-in GPS receiver, be sure
the transceiver is positioned so the GPS receiver has a
clear view to receive signals from satellites.
